Setup troubleshooting

If the HP

Photosmart

doesn’t turn on...

If you are unable

to print...

Mac

Windows

Make sure that your HP Photosmart is set as the

default printer and is not ofine.

1. On the Windows taskbar, click Start.

2. Then click Control Panel.

3. Then open:

• Devices and Printers (Windows 7)

• Printers (Vista)

• Printers and Faxes (XP)

Look to see if your printer has a check mark in

a circle next to it. If not, right-click the printer

icon and choose “Set as default printer” from

the menu.

If you still can’t print, or if the Windows

software installation failed:

1. Remove the CD from your computer’s CD

drive, and then disconnect the printer from

the computer.

2. Restart the computer.

3. Temporarilydisableanyrewallsoftware

and close any anti-virus software.

4. Insert the printer software CD into the

computer CD drive, then follow the

onscreen instructions to install the printer

software. Do not connect the USB cable

until you are told to do so.

5. Aftertheinstallationnishes,restartthe

computer and any security software you

disabled or closed.

Check the power cord.

• Makesurethepowercordisrmlyconnectedtoboththeprinterandthepoweradaptor.An

LED on the power supply will be lit if the power cord is working.

• If you are using a power strip, check that the power strip is turned on. Or, plug the printer

directly into a power outlet.

• Test the power outlet to make sure that is working. Plug in another appliance that you know

works, and see if it has power. If not, there may be a problem with the power outlet.

• If you plugged the printer into a switched outlet, check that the outlet is turned on.

1. Turn off the printer, and then unplug the power cord. Plug the power cord back in, and then

press the button to turn on the printer.

2. Take care not to press the button too quickly. Press it only once. It might take a few minutes

for the printer to turn on, so if you press the button more than once, you might be turning

off the printer.

3. If you have completed all the above steps, but are still having a problem, contact HP support

for service. Go to www.hp.com/support.

Fixing connectivity issues

You may have picked the wrong network or typed in your network name (SSID)

incorrectly.

Check these settings to ensure that they are correct.

You may have typed your wireless password (WEP key or WPA passphrase) incorrectly.

• If you are using encryption on your network, you’ll need to enter a key. These are case-

sensitive so be sure that it has been entered correctly.

• If the network name (SSID) or the wireless password are not found automatically during

installation, and you don’t already know them, you can download the Network Diagnostic

Utility, which can help you locate them.

• The Network Diagnostic Utility runs on computers with Windows XP SP3, Vista, or Windows

7 OS. The computer should also be wirelessly connected to your network. To download the

Network Diagnostic Utility, go to: www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting.

You may have a router problem.

Try restarting both the printer and the router by turning off the power on each. Then, turn them

both on again.

Your computer may not be connected to your network.

Make sure that the computer is connected to the same network to which the HP Photosmart is

connected.

Your computer may be connected to a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

Temporarily disconnect from the VPN before proceeding with the installation. Being connected to

a VPN is like being on a different network. You will need to disconnect from the VPN to access the

printer over the home network.

Security software may be blocking communication.

After software installation

If your printer has been successfully installed, but you are having trouble printing:

• Turn off the router, printer, and computer. Then, turn on router, printer, and computer -- in that

order.

• If powering down and up doesn’t solve the problem, run the Network Diagnostic Utility

(Windows):

• Go to: www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting to download the Network Diagnostic Utility, then

d. Unauthorized modification or misuse.

4. For HP printer products, the use of a non-HP cartridge or a refilled cartridge does not affect either the warranty to the

customer or any HP support contract with the customer. However, if printer failure or damage is attributable to the use of

a non-HP or refilled cartridge or an expired ink cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to

service the printer for the particular failure or damage.

5. If HP receives, during the applicable warranty period, notice of a defect in any product which is covered by HP's

warranty, HP shall either repair or replace the product, at HP's option.

6. If HP is unable to repair or replace, as applicable, a defective product which is covered by HP's warranty, HP shall,

product being replaced.

9. HP products may contain remanufactured parts, components, or materials equivalent to new in performance.

10. HP's Limited Warranty Statement is valid in any country where the covered HP product is distributed by HP. Contracts

for additional warranty services, such as on-site service, may be available from any authorized HP service facility in

countries where the product is distributed by HP or by an authorized importer.

from state to state in the United States, from province to province in Canada, and from country to country elsewhere in

the world.

2. To the extent that this Warranty Statement is inconsistent with local law, this Warranty Statement shall be deemed

modified to be consistent with such local law. Under such local law, certain disclaimers and limitations of this Warranty

Statement may not apply to the customer. For example, some states in the United States, as well as some governments

outside the United States (including provinces in Canada), may:

(e.g., the United Kingdom);

b. Otherwise restrict the ability of a manufacturer to enforce such disclaimers or limitations; or

c. Grant the customer additional warranty rights, specify the duration of implied warranties which the manufacturer

cannot disclaim, or allow limitations on the duration of implied warranties.
